Atletico Madrid

Last updated: Tue 01 December 2020 19:45
In Brief

Flying high in LaLiga right now. Missing the injured Sime Vrsaljko, Diego Costa and Manu Sanchez. Missing Lucas Torreira and Luis Suarez due to COVID-19. Geoffrey Kondogbia isn't eligible to play.

Looking Back

Have been great in LaLiga and have been using a new formation, with three at the back.

Couldn't get any goals against Lokomotiv Moscow, but dominated both games.

Looking Ahead

Starting centre-forward Luis Suarez is out due to COVID-19 and his backup Diego Costa is out with injury. So, Angel Correa could come in.

Backup midfielder Lucas Torreira is out due to COVID-19.

Backup right-back Sime Vrsaljko is out injured.

Backup left-back Manu Sanchez is out injured.

Backup midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia isn't eligible to play in the Champions League.

Points of Interest

There is no real advantage for either side in terms of rest time since they both had their most recent match on Saturday.

Bayern München

In Brief

Davies and Kimmich remain out injured. Tolisso, Lewandowski and Goretzka also miss out. Neuer rested. Boateng, Hernandez and Martinez fit. Roca suspended

Looking Back

Fought back from a goal down to secure a fairly comfortable victory in the end as they saw off Stuttgart's challenge with a 3-1 win

Perfect record in the Champions League means they have already qualified to the knockout stages and will be progressing as the group winners

Looking Ahead

Coach Flick is facing a lengthy list of concerns with Roca suspended after being sent off in the last match while Davies and Kimmich are long term absentees

Tolisso picked up a knock against Stuttgart and is not available for Tuesday along with Lewandowski and Goretzka who are also struggling with injuries.

Neuer also misses out after being rested for the game which should see Nubel replace him in the starting lineup

Sarr, Boateng, Hernandez and Martinez have all recovered from their injuries and are part of the squad traveling to Madrid.

Points of Interest

Have lost 0-1 to Atletico Madrid on their two previous visits to the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium
